拘役和拘留的区别十三、
Travis is the manager of G&G where he is responsible for forty employees（雇员）感谢师恩 and profits (利润) of over $2 million per year. He’s never late to work. He does not get upt on the job. When one of his employees started crying after a customer screamed at her, Travis took her away. “Your working uniform is your shelter,” he told her. “Nothing anyone says will ever hurt you. You will always be as strong as you want to be.”
Travis picked up that lecture in one of his G&G training cours, an education program that began on his first day and continues throughout an employee’s occupation. The training has, Travis says, changed his life. G&G has taught him how to live, how to focus, how to get to work on time, and how to master his emotions（情绪）. Most importantly, it taught him willpower.
At the center of that education is an extreme focus on an all-important habit: willpower. Dozens of cas show that willpower is the single most important habit for a person s success.
And the best way to strengthen willpower is to make it into a habit. “Sometimes it looks like people with great lf-control aren’t working hard—but that’s becau they’ve made it automatic,” Angela Duckworth, one of the University of Pennsylvania rearchers said. “Their willpower occurs without them having to think about it.”
